the o2 sensor being really bad might do that, just don't drive at part throttle anymore

It could be very well be your throttle cable....but I'd say check the O2 sensor too like that other dude said.

Unplug the O2 sensor and it should all go away. Worked for a few freinds and myself so give it a shot.

Yep!



could be an adjustment on the throttle body. I did this on mine and found it annoying!

The TPS is a good guess but I would do the O2 sensor trick first. Seems to be a little bit easier to me.
